Great for Sunday brunch :) enjoy an omelette , mimosa/Bloody Mary. Tend to be less of a wait than pigeon hole down the block. Also nice to sit outside when weather permits
Start with the pepper jack Mac n' Cheese and wash it down with a Devils Backbone Vienna Lager , a smooth local favorite.
My college years would have been SO much better if I had known they serve Starr Hill The Love on tap .
Great staff , great drinks, great atmosphere.
The Virginian is a college bar . Come here and get drunk. If you want to critique the food don't. Go dt.
Delicious! Sweet apple chicken was great!
Pork Mac n cheese and a PBR , mmmm good
Try the French Onion soup ! It's not salty like most but is still very delicious.
Sunday brunch , cheese grits , mimosas/blood mary
The pulled pork sandwich is finely shredded and absolutely delicious. Also get the mac and cheese !
Mac and cheese . So effing good. Best drink specials on the corner!
Great Crab cake sandwich
The pulled pork sandwich and pepperjack mac and cheese is perfect bar food.
This place is kind of awful, but lots of people go anyway to stand on tables and sweat on each other.
Great place to grab a drink before heading over to Scott Stadium for the game!
Get the crab cake sandwich !
The pepperjack Mac n Cheese with potato cake on top is a must have.
Their bloody marys are the bomb dot com
da french toast be bangin'
Try the pepperjack mac n cheese if they still make it.
Fantastic chicken fingers !
Excellent brunch: great eggs Benedict, poached eggs over grilled beet and greens, fresh-ground coffee - David Neumeyer
Crab Crusted Haddock is awesome! Only regret is I got the 6oz filet vs the 8oz ????. Combined with sautéed Spinach; this dish is awesome. - Ron Jeramiah
